I know a lot of people are firm believers that Led Zeppelin will not be at Bonnaroo, but I do think there is a chance that some members of Zeppelin might be present for the Superjam
Personally I'd like Robert Plant with Jack White. I'd crap my pants if those two walked out together. B.B. King would be cool too. Plus maybe an appearence by Ben Folds or Jakob Dylan would definetly bring a smile to my face.
Personal hopes since I have no idea for this is for a Led Zeppelin surprise. My realistic hopes since that is too good to be true is Robert Randolph sitting by his lapsteel like Ben Harper last year, Jim James/Carl Broemel on guitar (depending on if we need another voice w/ Rob), Umphrey's Bassist (name isn't coming to me) and any drummer who has life. The energy would be too much to describe. (No matter who it is, here's why you should like Kanye being at Bonnaroo. Him rapping or freestyling w/ any group would send it over the top.)

I think Levon Helm's road ramble could potentially be the Superjam. The whole point of the ramble is that he has a bunch of guests join him to jam out on Band tunes amongst others. To me it makes sense, and the list of potential guests is endless... I'll be there.
I'll be very disappointed if that turns out to be true. Ed has performed or recorded with other announced artists (Jack Johnson, Robert Plant, MMJ) and other Roo favorites (Ben Harper, Les Claypool), and he can play guitar so I hope he will be part of the Superjam. If not him, I think Mike could contribute to it.

If it were up to me, Warren Haynes and Derek Trucks on guitar; Phil on bass; Levon on drums; with special appearances by B.B., Willie, Robert Randolph, Jack White, Eddie Vedder, King Solomon, Bela Fleck, and the Dap-Kings horn section. Given the Zep theme to last year's superjam, I don't see them doing that again. But who knows?
"I want you to notice When I'm not around You're so fücking special I wish I was special But I'm a creep I'm a weirdo What the hell am I doing here? I don't belong here" -Radiohead
“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” -Benjamin Franklin
A more accurate way to put this would be...Jack White can't jam with anyone other than Meg. He does improvise, but I can't see him improvising with other people. He has a VERY distinct style of playing...I couldn't exactly see him and Warren trading solos.
Hey, Jude, don't be afraid. You were made to go out and get her. The minute you let her under your skin, Then you begin to make it better.
And any time you feel the pain, Hey Jude, refrain. Don't carry the world upon your shoulders. Well don't you know that it's a fool who plays it cool By making his world a little colder.
Don't know about superjam, but anyone think Haynes may end up with Metallica?
Both Jason Newtead (I know.....he's not in the band anymore) and Hetfield make appearances on Mule's Deep End albums....I'd just lose it if he walked out with them....
